This is unique hotel which used to be the Headquarters of the Detroit Fire Department. It is conveniently located downtown next to the historic Guardian Building, River walk and Grand Circus Park Historic District, and Fox Theater. The Apparatus is a great bar and restaurant in the hotel lobby. I throughly enjoyed staying at this hotel.

Overrated.

It was Fire

Restaurant and bar are incredible. Building is very unique and the design of every space was considered and executed carefully. Loved the bits of history infused throughout. All staff and servers were so nice. It was just fantastic. I will forever miss that bed too
